Girl Scouts Hire Lesbian As Chief Girl Experience Officer

Are you one of the millions that are buying girl scout cookies this year? Perhaps you are unaware of their new Chief Girl Experience Officer.Kokjohn-Poehler is an out lesbian married to a woman named Ashley Kokjohn. And, given her sexual preference, it is strange that her job title is "Girl Experience Officer”Her hiring five months ago was largely missed by Girl Scout critics around the country who have been watching the Girl Scouts drift leftward in the past 20 years.
San Diego Magazine featured Kokjohn-Poehler’s 2007 commitment ceremony: “Like many of the best love stories, this one began with a beautiful friendship. Krista Poehler and Ashley Kokjohn were immediately drawn to each other when they met in college, and spent countless hours discussing family, life goals and much more.”
Quoting her LinkedIn profile, as "Chief Girl Experience Officer," Kokjohn-Poehler will “serve as the chief of girl innovation and be the expert on and organizational voice for girls. Lead the "Girl Experience" team in efforts to take insights from marketplace data and collaborate internally and externally to drive program innovation.”
The drift away from conservative and social values began in the early '90s when God was made optional in the Girl Scout promise. This precipitated the founding of American Heritage Girls and the first widespread exit from the Girl Scouts.
